Simulated surgery for greater familiarity of procedures

What does “CAS-Enabled” mean?

“CAS-enabled” indicates that a product or a technique can be performed with the assistance of computer navigation.

How do I know if a CAS procedure is right for me?

There are many options available in joint replacement surgery, because each patient, each joint, and each situation is unique. After assessing your situation and the options available, your doctor will determine if a CAS procedure is appropriate for you.

For what procedures is CAS technology available?

CAS technology can be used with many minimally invasive and traditional joint replacement procedures. These include partial knee replacement, total knee replacement, and total hip replacement. It all depends on your candidacy and your doctor’s decision.
